Tiles opinion

dave82_2

Thanks again for the comments. It isn't really the grey grout we have an issue with or even the floor tiles. The walls look great on their own and the floor looks great on it's own.

The tiller has done a first class job. Our worry is that they don't really go together. We didn't expect the floor tiles to be so different in shade to the wall tiles as they are sold together!

I contacted the manufacturer and they said this is normal.

I guess what I am hoping is once the sink, radiators, toilet bath and shower are in the floor won't stand out so much!

Actually on looking at mine, I like the contrast of the dark with the light so maybe once your radiator and sink, bath in ect it might look better for you....

I love this! Looked at same sort of thing myself and this has helped make my mind up. I can see its shiny gloss, did you use a special spray to stop slipping? (can't remember name).

I'm with the others re grey grout, we had a bathroom at old house, white tiles with white grout, drove me bonkers, as always looked like floor needed cleaning!

It is starting to grow on us and looks better with some chrome in the room.

Yep you are starting not to see the previously very obvious non alignment of grout lines. I think it will be OK.

Cheers

Thanks,

I think the grout dried a bit lighter which has helped. The contrast also seems to be emphisised in the photos looks much more natural in person.
